We were told we could be picked up anywhere on the route. That eventually became true but we were told two different starting times and got no help from the app.

Online ticketing worked well. Would be better if you could continue using your electronic ticket all day instead of trying to hang on to the little paper one the first driver gives you.

Saturday April 19th you did not have enough buses running. They would stop and be full so nobody could get on. Tha audio and stops were good.

I booked the hoo on and Alcatraz tour the website pushed me to order for 4/7 which was a day I won't even be in SF. I realized it soon after and called to try and correct the error and no one could help me. They asked me to rebook another trip and gave me a menial discount. This is really disappointing... I now wasn't able to do half the tour and I also am out of pocket over $100.Jennifer

I didn't love the cheesy recorded audio portions of the tour. The information was just okay. The value of the 2 day ticket was great. The sunset tour with Rocky (?) was fabulous. The walking tour of Chinatown with Blake was full of great information. He was excellent. A warning of the cold and wind on the upper deck when going at higher speeds over the bridges would be good. We learned our lesson on the sunset tour so went downstairs before crossing the Golden Gate Bridge for the daytime tour. I love the app to see where the stops are and when the busses are coming.
